Han Xiang or Han Xiang Zi, was One of the Eight Immortals.

Han Xiang was born during the Tang Dynasty, and his courtesy name is Qingfu. He is said to be the nephew or grandson of Han Yu, a prominent statesman of Tang Court. Han Xiang studied Daoism under Lv Dongbin. Once at a banquet by Han Yu, Han Xiang persuaded Han Yu to give up a life of officialdom and to study Dao with him. But Han Yu was adamant that Han Xiang should dedicate his life to Daoism instead of Confucianism, so Han Xiang demonstrated the power of the Dao by pouring out cup after cup of wine from the gourd without end

Because his flute gives life, Han Xiang became a protector of flautists.
